Ok I’m sold, asked AD to put me on the list



I think quietly this is the best release in 2023.

It is probably my favourite Rolex release this year. I love the bezel shade of grey & black.

This new two tone gmt really reminds me of Guinness beer.

Awesome choice, I think it’s a slow burn and we will all want it soon!

Yup, I suspect this will be the case. I’m already warming to it.

Too busy for me and I really don’t like the grey part of the bezel, but I hope you get the call quickly Frank.

IMO they grey still looks weird in pics - but then again so do many of the other GMT colors when photographed in bright light (BLRO purple, BLRO pink, CHNR pastel brown.) Looking forward to seeing one myself.

Probably ranks up there with the nice looking TT models (like the CHNR), but in terms of overall appeal not so much. Definitely get a gaudy wallstreet vibe from this one, which can be fun as occasional wear but not daily.

Will be contacting Admin soon to have it changed, made it over 10 years ago when I was a gold bug. Nothing to do with watches actually. Cheers!

I like it and am into the 70's-80's vibe the watch throws off. I am on the list for the PM version as well as the YM42 and the Green Dial SS Sky-Dweller. If I was a betting man the sequence will be YG GMT then the YM42 and then the Green SD but who knows.

Definitely the best release of 2023.
I'm strongly considering selling my 2018 BLRO to purchase the two-tone GRNR. That vintage 70s/80s Vegas style vibe is what has me sold. Beautiful!
